Welcome to Waldium

Congratulations on joining Waldium! You've just taken the first step toward creating an autonomous blog that generates, publishes, and optimizes content for the age of AI-powered discovery.

What is Waldium?

Waldium is more than just a blogging platform—it's an intelligent content engine designed for how people discover information today. While traditional blogs optimize for Google search, Waldium helps your content surface when developers ask ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, or other AI systems for recommendations.

Think of it this way: when someone asks "What's the best way to implement authentication in Next.js?", your technical guide could be the answer that ChatGPT recommends. That's the power of Waldium.

What Makes Waldium Different?

AI-First Content Generation: Generate professional blog posts in minutes using advanced AI models. Simply provide a topic, choose your tone and style, and let Waldium create comprehensive, well-structured content.

Knowledge Base Integration: Upload your product documentation, API specs, research papers, or any other documents. Waldium references this knowledge to create accurate, contextual content that reflects your expertise.

Autonomous Publishing: Set it and forget it. Schedule posts in advance or enable auto-publish to continuously ship content without manual intervention.

Beautiful, Fast Hosting: Your blog lives on your custom domain with professional themes, global CDN, SSL certificates, and all the technical infrastructure handled automatically.

Analytics That Matter: Track how your content performs and see which posts surface in AI search. Understand what resonates with your audience and optimize accordingly.

Your First Steps

Here's how to get the most out of Waldium in your first week:

1. Explore Your Dashboard

Take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the Waldium dashboard. You'll find everything you need in the left sidebar:

  • Posts: Create, manage, and publish your content
  • Analytics: Track performance and engagement
  • Knowledge: Upload documents to enhance AI generation
  • Authors: Manage team members and author profiles
  • Customize: Personalize your blog's appearance
  • Settings: Configure domains, integrations, and preferences

2. Create Your First Post

The easiest way to see Waldium in action is to create your first post. You have two options:

Manual Creation: Click "New" and start writing with our rich text editor. You'll have access to markdown support, image uploads, and all the formatting tools you need.

AI Generation: Click "New" → "Generate Post" and let Waldium create content for you. Provide a topic like "Getting Started with React Hooks" and watch as Waldium generates a comprehensive guide in seconds.

Try both methods to see which workflow fits your needs!

3. Add Your Expertise

The more Waldium knows about your domain, the better content it creates. Head over to the Knowledge section and upload some documents:

  • Product documentation
  • API specifications
  • Research papers
  • Case studies
  • Previous blog posts
  • Technical guides

Waldium will process these documents and use them as context when generating future posts.

4. Customize Your Blog

Make your blog uniquely yours by visiting the Customize section:

  • Choose from beautiful professional themes
  • Set your brand colors and fonts
  • Upload your logo and favicon
  • Configure your blog's metadata and SEO settings

5. Set Up Your Domain

While Waldium provides a free yourname.waldium.app subdomain, you can connect your own custom domain like blog.yourcompany.com. We'll handle all the DNS configuration and SSL certificates automatically.

Quick Tips for Success

Be Specific with Topics: When using AI generation, specific topics like "Implementing JWT Authentication in Express.js" work better than generic ones like "Authentication".

Build Your Knowledge Base Early: The sooner you upload your documents, the more contextual and accurate your AI-generated content becomes.

Start with Drafts: All AI-generated posts start as drafts, giving you a chance to review and refine before publishing.

Use the Preview: Always preview your posts before publishing to see exactly how they'll appear to readers.

Enable Analytics: Connect Google Analytics to track detailed metrics and understand what content resonates with your audience.

Understanding Your Plan

You're currently on the Free plan, which includes:

  • Free blog hosting at yourname.waldium.app
  • 10 posts per month
  • AI content rewriting
  • Custom domain support
  • llms.txt hosting for AI discovery
